SAMUEL LIPSON, 8 F SAUGUS, MASSACHUSETTS. ASSIGNCR 0 ONE-THIRD TO HARRY nosmcsnss AND OHUSETTS.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it knoivn that l, SAMUEL LIPSON,.Z1 rit zen ot the Lnrtecl States, residing at -l-'angus, in the county of Essex and State m" Massachusetts, have invented an linprcrement in Garment cementing lilzv chines, of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to certain improvements in the machine disclosed in prior patent #642,344, and more particularly to certain improvements in the means for de liver'ing' and applying cement to the Work.

The ohioct ot the present invention is to improve the cement delivering and applying; means of said prior device, in various particulars, as will hereinafter appear.

in the accompanying drawings :F igure 1 is an elevation of the end of the head of a machine, such as shown in my said prior patent, provided with my present improvements, Fig. 2 is a side elevation, and Fig. 3 is a front elevation of a cement delivering nozzle, made according to my present in volition. Fig. 4*. is a central vertical sectional view of the nozzle shown in Fig. 3. Fig. 5 is a bottom plan view of the nozzle. Figs. 6 and 7 are detail views of the two main portions into which the nozzle may be separated. Fig. 8 is a detail View of the nozzle gate valves.

1n the drawing (1 indicates the table of the machine, and b the head thereof, on which the cement feeding devices are arranged, 0'

indicating the cement-tank and (Z the tube into which the cement is fed. An endless table 6, in the form of a linked chain, is arranged to be fed over the feed rolls f, and a supporting portion of the table at the level of the surface of the table, and presser rolls 9 are arranged to bear on said table to provide a frictional engagement between the ta -1e and the Work. The cement delivering tube is connected to a nozzle h, in which a valve 71 is mounted, said nozzle being open at its lower end and the front p0"- tion of said nozzle being provided With a removable section -j, for cleaning purposes, and the lower portion of both being extended transversely to provide an elongated discharge orifice.

A pair of gate valves /l: are slidahly mounted in the lower portion of the nozzle 71-, and its section 3', and said valves l; are connected to an adjusting screw m, by means Specification of Letters Yatcnt.

of right and left screw threads, respectively so that when said screw is rotated, sai gates may be simultaneously ad usted, either toward or from each other and may be at all times held equidistant from the middle of the cement passage, so that the Width of said passage may be readily varied and the center of the discharge Will, at all times, he

at the same point. I

A. foot piece a mounted on a pivot 0 011 6b the lower end of the nozzle It, opposite the middle of the cement passage thcrethrough, said foot. piece being provided with a fiat, Work-engaging face a on its under side, which is held approximately at the level of the lower end of the nozzle it, thus providing an extended bearing surface for the nozzle.

A roller 32 is mounted in the front end portion of the foot piece a and a yielding cement spreader and evener g is fastened to an arm 7', mounted on the foot piece 91, in the rear of said pivot, said spreader comprising a fiat spring having its lower end square and parallel to the face a of the foot, and extending slightly beneath said face, as shown 0 in Figs. 2 and 3.

The nozzle /b is mount-ed to yield vertically against the action of a spring a, substantially as shown in my said prior patent.

The operation of the device is as follows When the work is placed in position on HE table e the foot piece a is permitted to rest on the surface to he cemented, and the Work is fed therebeneath, by the feeding action of the table and the cooperating rolls 9. As the Work is fed beneath the nozzle, the cement will be delivered thereto in a manner which will be olovions, the Width of the stream of cement which is delivered being varied by th adjustment of the'gates 7c. Inasmuch as there are vario-iis scams, or doubled portions in the garments which are cemented, the pivotal. connection between the foot-piece n and the nozzle permits said foot piece to adjust itself to various angles according tosnchvariations, so that it may easily pass thereoverythe roll p in the front portion thereof, the surface of which is held slightly beneath the surface of the facen,

.materially in permitting a ready feeding of the garment beneath the end of the nozzle. The spring scraper 9 acts to'distribute the cement evenly, as itis delivered to the Work, so that anniform coating is applied throughout the entire width of the 11 ea middle 0mm de surface which is to be; with cement, said serager being adapted to yield in case 'ulemtles are encountered, and to adapt to these conditions, particularly as it 15 ie'reised and lowered by the pivoted foot 1 In: cementing machine vheving work means, a cements-delivering nozzle 11,

lo'i'eriend thereof to swing about an axis is} underside and a deflecting means at its and, Substantially as described 2. 1 cementing machine having W01k feeding means, a cement delivering nozzie having a foot pivotaily mounted on the lower end thereof to swing about an axis disposed transversely of the feed, said foot having a work-engaging face on its under side and e, deflectin means at its front end, and a cement spree er mounted on said foot in the rear of its delivery opening, and com prising a yielding tongue, having a trensversely' extending, work-engagingend portion, substantially as described.

In testimony whereof, I have signed my.

name to this specification, in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
